ADR's at La Crêperie de Paris are drunk!

[Zimwicket]

I understand for certain ADR's, like the dessert parties or fireworks packages, they aren't released at the 60 day window. But, what is going on with La Crêperie de Paris?? Current ADR's have tons of availability for dinner here up until July 30th, and then no reservations at all through the current 60 day max. Does this restaurant have a crazy release schedule similar to dessert parties when they will just randomly release more days at some point? It has been this way since the original 60 day window for July 30th. Maybe a crepe convention is coming to Disney for August and took all the reservations??

Possible reasons 1) Disney Dining system is terminally glitchy like all WDW online systems and same old same old issue or 2) dining plan may be in the works and the menu needs a rethink eg some higher dollar meals added to fit within that framework. The current prix fixe menu is not worth burning a table service credit on. It could be rebranded a quick service but don't know how much work that would entail. Just guesses and no inside info. Likely issue 1 but can hope its 2.

I would hope they would have announced closing it for changes. I'm going more with #1, but more of the lines of "they forgot to open booking for it"

This seems to happen a lot. I noticed Chefs de France was missing for a while, now reappeared. A few years ago, San Angel Inn was missing, then reappeared. Have no idea how they load restaurant availability, but it seems very buggy always.

Cape May Cafe for dinner went through a dark period of no availability. It’s probably glitchy it. I don’t think it has Eat to the Beat packages like Biergarten does or is super trendy like Space 220 that would actually be fully booked up.

I got one this morning for August 29th for the La Creperie!

La Crêperie de Paris reservations are note available through at least Septrmber 18th!

I’ve been waiting over a month to get one for August 13th and they became available just after midnight. So bizarre, Disney.

I'm glad you posted that. I'd been trying to get for our trip 9/11-9/18 and until this morning nothing was listed. Just got our time for 9/11 and there were a lot of times.

Thank you!

Yes some random IT person finally said "oh hey, we never opened this up past July 29th!" and it was immediately opened past that date and stays open for 60 days from here on out. I was within 2 weeks of the actual reservation I wanted before I could book it, that was just crazy and all the CM's just kept saying "it was full", which of course wasn't true.

What really gets me sometimes is that, with so many companies now, there is no point calling and talking to an actual person, because that person is just going to look at the same booking screens that you can see, and just read off whatever it says. That's all they know, all they can know, and they are powerless to do anything more for you, and unable (unwilling?) to escalate the matter to anyone that can actually help.

Seriously, what's the point of waiting hours to speak to a Cast Member, when that Cast Member will just read to you the exact same answer that your own computer screen has been giving you? Is there anything that Disney customer support can do that is not fully dictated by Disney's computer systems? When it comes to things like ADRs, I really doubt it, so what's the point of calling them?

This 100% this! I had a similar experience when trying to book the fireworks dining packages at epcot. They kept telling me "it was full" and I kept saying it sounds to me like its just not open yet. I asked if they could look 70 days out and still see if "it was full" and the system wouldn't let her look anytime outside of my reservation. I guess its to prevent folks from booking reservations for a guest they shouldn't be, but still let them at least view stuff. She also escalated to a supervisor since she thought it was strange to be full too, they had same response.
